    The Ridge monkey sandwich toaster , what a fantastic piece of kit , cook anything in them and to think they were around in the 1940s ,not by ridge monkey though 😁 and I only discovered it a few years ago / Generally though I have a fry up in the evenings , Beans ,Bacon, Eggs ,Sausages/Burgers all in a large frying pan ,which I also use as the plate

    Defiantly Side cutters , but dont buy cheap , buy decent ones as these will cut first time and with ease.

    Barbless should be on all Club Tickets , to cater for all angling abilities. Personally Micro Barbed, but no problem using Barbless and do on situations where the outcome could mean I lose the fish,

    You may wish later to have matching reels ,if your not doing nights then a chair would be good, net and matt too I personal think second hand is a good way to get quality without the big price tag new. I only buy Mint AAA at 50 -60 % of new , save a fortune over the years ,you may have to wait but its out their.

    I think the bottom line is , if you like to fish whit tiny rods 😁 and you feel better for it then so be it ,it suits your fishing so good luck to you .

    I have been reading this thread and over the last couple of days ,and racking my brain as to why I would use rods shorter than 12 foot , and can honestly say I never would and have never had the need , yes I have fished tight swims as with most us ,but cannot think for the life of me that I thought my rods may have been to long . I personally think their has been some great marketing out their to make the short rods the must have thing.

    ""A correctly tied helicopter rig is the safest rig there is"" I do believe this too , as this is the rig I use in all situations on the bottom.Unless some can show me otherwise.

    I read all the rules then decide if I feel it is being run in a manor that I would like to fish . If I feel its just greed or ignorance ill walk away

    Well respected bait company and not a bad price . https://www.ccmoore.com/10kg-pacific-tuna-bundle-p-2566.html

    This. is the deal breaker for me , The Boilies Only boilies & pellets supplied by the venue are allowed as feed, you may bring a max of strictly 2kg per angler of your own fresh / frozen hookbaits. Then for them to mug you off on their boilies at 10 euro a kilo

    I have the Nash Airlite SS3 Wideboy 5 season , AAA excellent is all I can say really , zip that second bag on in winter and toastie all night long Personally I would not buy a standard one as the way the bags zips on to it will make sleeping inside quite restrictive , whereas the wide has plenty of room to move around

    It does spoke them but then again it doesnt , only way to know is try , My success rate at this is probably 2 out of every 10 , if nothing within 20 mins ill forget it and carry on back to what I was doing.

    Excellent choice of rods , I have them in 3.25 and was putting a small mesh bag on the hook 94 yards, The ones you are looking at will cover most angling situation you will find.
  23. dayvid
    Daiwa have brought out their new Daiwa Emblem 45SCW QD Apparently I believe the same or similar spool size to the Basia
  24. dayvid
    I spray it on after i have baited and cast out , then clean my hands in weed or mud after.

    If your looking for top end then its a case of who you know not what you know . Off the top of my head look up Cadlands estate http://www.cadland.co.uk/fishing
